Fury Towards The Burning Heaven-Chapter 1669 - Instant Fortune

Jiang Yi had learned from He Nongying that this world was like a pagoda split into three realms: the Pan Universe Small Realm, Minor Chiliocosm, and Major Chiliocosm. These three realms formed the Primordial World.

The Pan Universe Small Realm was made up of uncountable domains and people; these were the lowest-grade domains where the martial artists residing in them were extremely weak. They were like aborigines to some in the Higher Domain.

There were seven Minor Chiliocosms which each had more than ten thousand domains where formidable martial artists were plentiful. Although the Major Chiliocosm only had ten domains, this was the pinnacle of the pagoda; the number of formidable martial artists here was astounding. Even just some of them could easily destroy a Minor Chiliocosm.

It was hard to picture just how big the Primordial World was, how many domains there were in total. Hundreds of millions? Billions? How many humans were there in total? It was not countable.

However…!

In the entire Primordial World, all the domains had the same Heavenly Venerate, the most powerful Overlord. That was the Heavenly Thearch, the Lord of all domains.

Only one who was stronger than all the Heaven Domain formidable martial artists could be qualified to become the Heavenly Thearch. As a matter of fact—when the Heavenly Thearch was alive, the Heaven Domain had no other thearchs; there were only four emperors, not four supreme thearchs!

After the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch’s demise, the four emperors renamed themselves as the four supreme thearchs. However, they were not that thick-skinned; only those that could reach their level of attainment could become Thearch-Ranked martial artists. That way, they could call themselves Thearch-Ranked officially. Subsequently, a Pseudo Thearch-Ranked was created for people like Dao Leng. If the Heaven Thearch was still alive, he would probably have killed this ‘Pseudo Thearch-Ranked’ martial artist with one strike.

When the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch was alive, the Netherworld Thearch could also only be called Netherworld Emperor; no one dared to be known as Thearch. Not one of them could even come close to matching up to the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch.

This was an extremely terrifying formidable martial artist, the strongest in the history of the human race. Now, he had left behind a wisp of his remnant soul but had actually gone to the puny Stellarsky Domain? He had been in hiding for a million years and did not find anyone of his liking—not even the Mystic Thearch—but had chosen Jiang Yi to be his successor?

The Heavenly Thearch also wielded a sword that could rally the entire Primordial World. It was the most powerful weapon and having it represent the Heavenly Thearch; that person could ascend and take the place as the new Heavenly Thearch, commanding all human race formidable martial artists!

No one else would believe that Jiang Yi was the successor, right? Jiang Yi felt as if the whole situation was so very ridiculous and unreal.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Jiang Yi’s peculiar behavior had attracted the attention of many. Jiang Yi felt some divine senses sweeping by as he hurriedly crawled up and genuflected on the ground, respectfully kowtowing at the statue.

Those divine senses immediately receded. To be afraid after seeing the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch’s statue was very common. Many of them had also respectfully kowtowed the first time they had seen this statue and knew that this was the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch.

The God Thearch that had been interrupted by Jiang Yi cast a glance and left. Jiang Yi waited until no one paid any attention to him. He then rose, took a few more looks at the statue, turned, and left. His footsteps were rather slow; he didn’t dare to move faster as he was afraid his legs might shake.

Huhu, this is not right! Why is his sword different from the Fire Dragon Sword? The sword is so overbearing!

Jiang Yi turned and looked at the sword the statue was holding onto; he realized that from appearances, it was very different from his Fire Dragon Sword. This sword had a dragon climbing about it while a dragon’s tail was at its hilt. The dragon’s head swirled and snaked all the way to the edge of the sword, and it looked very mystifying.

“No wonder!”

Jiang Yi soon understood why. No wonder no one recognized his Fire Dragon Sword. From appearance and power, it was much weaker than the statue’s. It seemed as if once the remaining three parts of the Fire Dragon Sword and its artifact spirit were found, then the true Fire Dragon Sword could be formed. Jiang Yi just wondered how the Earth Emanations Sovereign had managed to identify it.

“If you can gather all the seven parts and the artifact spirit of this sword, it will reveal its true appearance. You can then utilize its full strength. Its might will be more than you could ever imagine!”

“You are destined to be mortal enemies with the Netherworld Realm. When you reach the ninth stage and have found all the missing pieces of the Fire Dragon Sword and its Artifact Spirit, you will possess the powers necessary to resist against the Netherworld Realm!”

Jiang Yi recalled what the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch had said before he went into slumber. At that time, he didn’t really understand these words. Now, he did fully. If he gathered the seven parts of the sword and its artifact spirit, the Fire Dragon Sword would reveal its true self and become a true Heavenly Thearch Divine Weapon. Although he didn’t know how strong the Heavenly Thearch Divine Weapon was, it was definitely more powerful than a Primordial Spiritual Treasure!

To fight the Netherworld Realm to death!

Since he was the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch’s successor—even if he didn’t want to become enemies with the Netherworld Realm, the Netherworld Thearch would find trouble with him. Once his identity was made known, the Netherworld Realm would pursue and hunt him to death. Since the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch was killed by the Netherworld Thearch—as his successor, how could he not help the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch seek revenge?

Everything was now clear!

Many doubts in Jiang Yi’s head were cleared: for example, why did the Fire Spirit Pearl have such a strong fire-repelling ability? It was because it was a part of the Heavenly Thearch Divine Weapon and thus possessed the strongest fire-repelling ability. This was easy to explain.

The Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch’s remnant soul had hidden in the Lower Domain for more than a million years; that was ten thousand over Higher-Domain years. The Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch had died around ten thousand years ago, and the timeline made sense.

His remnant soul had gone to the Stellarsky Domain. It didn’t have much energy left, and so it could not move anymore and could only find a successor in the Stellarsky Domain. It was a pity that the Stellarsky Domain was but a Mortal Domain where the spirit energy was weak; how could an absolute genius be formed?

Yi Piaopiao was from the Phantom Race; that was a Higher-Domain divine race. Inside Jiang Yi flowed a sliver of a divine race’s bloodline, and his gifts were considered the best. That was why Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch had chosen him to be his successor in the end.

Jiang Yi still did not understand; why did the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch seal his dantian at the start? Could that have something to do with the Nameless Divine Art? Jiang Yi concentrated his thoughts on the Fire Dragon Sword inside his interspatial ring, wanting to see if the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch’s remnant soul had awoken.

Unfortunately…

Jiang Yi called on the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch a few times, but there was still no response. Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch said he had to sleep for five years? Jiang Yi had thought he meant five Lower-Domain years. From the looks of it, the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch had meant five Higher-Domain years.

“Let’s go!”

Jiang Yi’s footsteps quickened. Many emotions were filling up in him, and he was a little unstable. If he continued walking on the streets, he could attract unwanted attention.

He felt as if he was a beggar who had picked up a little gold nugget and held tight to it as he made his way home, fearful that someone would realize and snatch it from him.

Finding an inn, Jiang Yi discovered a problem. The inns here were very expensive, and one night cost a million divine roots. No wonder some people chose to sit cross-legged in the city plaza; these people couldn’t afford the rent.

Jiang Yi was not lacking in divine roots. He had gotten fifty million divine roots during the Ten Thousand Domain Tournament while he had ripped the Bai Clan off afterward; he actually had more than he could spend. He thought about it and decided to pay one day’s worth of rent.

For a million divine roots, Jiang Yi got what he paid for. It was a standalone castle that was very lavishly decorated. Two beautiful maidservants were kneeling inside waiting to serve him. What made Jiang Yi even more stunned was there was actually a spirit concentration array in the castle. The heaven and earth spirit energy inside was ten-fold that of outside!

This Nine Tripod City seemed to be huge and should be quite well-known in the Nine Yang Region. If not, the He Clan would not have teleported him here while the inns would not be so expensive and luxurious.

“You two are dismissed; do not disturb me unless there’s something important! I am going into seclusion to cultivate!”

Jiang Yi chased the maidservants away as he activated the castle’s restrictions and immediately grew excited, spinning about in the castle.

He was as if a nomad who had suddenly gained a fortune instantly. He even had a strong rash thought to head straight for the Nine Yang Army and look for the thirty-six heavenly kings there, bearing his Fire Dragon Sword.

The Nine Yang Army was said to be the Heavenly Thearch’s personal army. Once it was under his command, why would he be afraid of the Dao Clan?

Jiang Yi could then leap forward and be one of the few people controlling one of the most powerful factions in the Heaven Domain. He could then bring soldiers back to the Earth Domain, rescue Yi Piaopiao, head to the Ink Feather Mystic Realm, and beat-up the Green Eagle King. He could then bring Jiang Xiaonu, Yin Ruobing, Yi Chan, and Su Ruoxue back.
